When you’re making investments across borders, choosing the right structure is essential. Whether you’re an NRI investing in India or abroad, a global founder planning capital infusion, or a business managing international investors, a well-organised structure helps protect your rights, reduce compliance risks, and support long-term growth.

At Your Legal Assistant, we provide offshore investment-structuring support to NRIs, global entrepreneurs, and cross-border businesses. Our team helps you review terms, organise documents, and understand the regulatory framework around your investment so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

How We Help You with Investment Structuring

We follow a clear, step-by-step approach to make your investment legally organised and strategically sound.

1. Understanding Your Investment Goal: We begin by understanding the type of investment, equity, debt, convertible instruments, joint ventures, fund infusions, or cross-border transfers.
2. Review and Analysis: Our team reviews the deal terms, company structure, investor rights, and regulatory considerations relevant to your jurisdiction and investment route (for example, ODI, FDI, FEMA considerations for NRIs investing in India).
3. Structuring Recommendations: We outline the possible investment structures, the legal implications of each option, and how they affect ownership, control, compliance, taxation basics, and future exit plans.
4. Document Drafting and Preparation: We help prepare and organise all key investment documents needed for a clean and well-structured deal. This includes term sheets, detailed investment agreements, shareholder or partnership agreements, and drafts for convertible notes or SAFE-style instruments. We also assist with joint-venture documentation, cap table summaries, and the corporate resolutions or internal approvals required to formalise the investment. All documents are prepared in a clear, attorney-ready format to support seamless cross-border review.
5. Final Review and Delivery: You receive a structured, easy-to-understand set of documents and recommendations that support your investment goals.

(Note: We provide offshore legal support only. We do not offer legal opinions or represent clients before government authorities. Final filings and legal submissions must be completed by a licensed attorney in the relevant jurisdiction.)
